IPhoto can't see duplicates after time zone change

So went on a trip and was using iPhoto to backup photos I took each day on the trip, but I was also keeping them on the camera so that I'd have two copies. The place I travelled to was in a different time zone, so I had changed the settings on my Mac while I was there. Each time I did the backup, iPhoto recognized which photos were duplicates so that it didn't re-import the same photos. After I returned home and the set the time zone back, iPhoto no longer recognized the duplicates between what was on the camera and what was in iPhoto.
Is this a bug? If this occurs again is there some way I can fix it? After I got back, I had to keep switching the time zone on my Mac every time I did a photo import until I got everything backed up properly. It was quite an annoyance.

Craig,
The way to prevent it from happening is to not change your Mac's time zone between finishing the download of photos. Take a look at this article from the iPhoto FAQ section of the discussions...

  • Can't see manual after download. Says get Acrobat. Have Adobe. Shop says $449! Just want to read an iphone 4 manual

    Can't see manual after downloading several times from Apple. Somewhere else says have to get Acrobat to read. Have Adobe. Acrobat on Apple site is over $400! All I want to do is read an iphone 4 manual.

    Acrobat Reader is free.  Or try this:
    1. Select the file.
    2. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window.
    3. In the Open With section select Preview from the dropdown menu.
    4. Click on the Change All button.
    This will assign Preview as the default application for opening PDF files.  Now, if you downloaded the manual on your iPhone, then you need a PDF reader app.  Try the free GoodReader app.  Or you can download the manual in iBook format.

  • Does Time Capsule back up everything on my computer? If I inadvertently delete photos from iPhoto can they be retrieved from Time Capsule?

    Does Time Capsule back up everything on my computer? If I inadvertently delete photos from iPhoto can they be retrieved from Time Capsule?

    About TM "Backup Drive is Full"
    Alert TM only deletes older files if they have been deleted from the source and when TM needs space on the backup drive for a new incremental backup. Time Machine "thins" it's backups; hourly backups over 24 hours old, except the first of the day; those "daily" backups over 30 days old, except the first of the week. The weeklies are kept as long as there's room.
    So, how long a backup file remains depends on how long it was on your Mac before being deleted, assuming you do at least one backup per day. If it was there for at least 24 hours, it will be kept for at least a month. If it was there for at least a week, it will be kept as long as there's room.
    Note, that on a Time Capsule the sparsebundle grows in size as needed, but doesn't shrink. Thus, from the user's view of the TC it appears that no space has been freed, although there may be space in the sparsebundle.
    Once TM has found it cannot free up enough space for a new backup it reports the disk is full. You can either erase the backup drive and start your backups anew or replace the drive with a larger drive.

  • IPhoto can't see my iPhone 5S

    Even though I plug in, iPhoto can't see my iPhone 5S device.  iTunes sees it, sometimes even if it isn't plugged in, but iPhoto is not seeing it.  This also happened to a friend who repeatedly connected and disconnected until it was recognized.  That hasn't happened for me yet, and it sounds like a bug that needs fixing. 
    Anybody else have this experience?  Know a solution?  Something?

    It's a long shot but the method posted by Robin Johnson in this post might work for you:

    This solved my questionRe: ios update problem - 7.1 11D167 iphoto not picking up new photos
    Mar 20, 2014 7:15 AM (in response to JdinPa)
    I figured out the fix for the Mac users having this problem. I connected my iPhone to my iMac and started iTunes. A dialogue came up in iTunes, I OK'd that and then OK'd the usual "Do you trust this Mac" that comes up on my iPhone.
    Suddenly Image Capture launched itself and there were all my photos, ready to be downloaded.

  • HT4576 I want to set up appointment times for an overseas trip before I go, and see those local times in the places I visit, but also be able to set new appointments while I am traveling, in the local times.  Can I do this with Time Zone Support?  If not,

    I want to set up appointment times for an overseas trip on my iPhone 4S before I go, and have them appear as I put them in (for the local time) when visiting other countries.  I also want to be able to adjust times and set up new appointments when I am overseas for the local time.  Can I do this using the Time Zone Support or any other way? 
    Basically I want to do what I can do with a piece of paper - write down the time for when I will be there, and have it viewable when I am there, but also be able to put down new times while there.

    Hi.
    Regarding your question about reverting back- yes, I think you can. If you make a backup of your current configuration in Server Admin (by dragging the configuration file to your desktop- cool, no?) then you can load that one back in should your configuration not work. If you have the manual from Apple it should describe this process.
    Network speed post-op? I don't think you will need to worry. Even using home directories stored on our OS X Server there is no network slowdown (that you can notice or that impacts the wider LAN in any case). It shouldn't slow down access to files, applications (which still come from the local drive anyway) or individual internet connections (even with filtering).
    In our experience some of these things have actually got faster- but a lot of that is user perception. Same goes for people who will know you have configured the server and that they are now accessing files through your network from the server, and who really think it is slower. File coming from your local hard drive will always be quicker- but network access isn't that bad that it will make you barf and run in the opposite direction.
    Something to look at: connection speed between clients and switching technology in your office. In other words, what kinds of switches are you using, what line speed have you got (100MB/s?) and is the connection from your server to the switch gigabit? Make sure it is.
    Enjoy

  • Can't see photos after moving iphoto library to new imac.

    The info for each picture and folder is there but there is not thumbnail or image.  Any help? 

    Then  apply the two fixes below in order as needed: 
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Can't see Express after 1 minute. Using Extreme N

    Hello Everybody
    You guys are my last resort. I am unable to figure this out for the life of me. Using the AirPort Utility, I've configured a WDS Network with an AirPort Extreme N and an AirPort Express. My goal was to have wireless music connected to my home stereo and have the Express act as a birdge.
    I've only sort-of accomplished this goal. My Macbook Pro is unable to see both the Extreme and the Express at the same time for more then 1 minute or so. It's certainly strange behavior.
    If I reset my my Extreme, I am able to see the Express and the Extreme from the AirPort Utility. If I just leave it as it is, after about 1 minute or so I'll rescan and ONLY see the Extreme Base Station. I'm unable to stream music as iTunes can't locate the Express. If I reset my Extreme again to see both, only when I can see both, I'm able to stream music from iTunes to the Express. Today I streamed for about 6 hours without changing the song. When I came to change a song in iTunes, suddenly I could no longer see my Express!!
    This is completely annoying and utterly ridiculous. I'm so close to returning the Express because it hasn't been as easy to use as everything esle I've bought from Apple. I've searched the boards and didn't find this specific issue.
    Help?
    Am I missing something?
    Why can I see it sometimes and then it goes away?
    Has anybody experienced this?

    WDS one of my favorite functions of the airport base stations
    *first what id do just to make sure everything is happy as in mac happy
    1:move the airport express and extreme to the same room
    2:hard reset the express and extreme base station, just to start back off at square one
    3:leave the express unplugged, and configure the extreme only using the assisted mode in the airport utility
    4:after updating the extreme confirm the light on the extreme is green and your able to get online wireless n so on
    5: now plug in the express, and run through the configuration on assisted setup
    *same deal just using the options 1: connect to current wireless network, 2: extend the range of my wireless network, 3: choose the network of the extreme N base station, 4: then select the base station which is going to be the main *in this case its the extreme, 5: it may take it a moment but the airport utility will automatically configure the airports both WDS and it can take up to a entire minute for both to send their configuration to each other once its done and the airports are configured verify both are green and you can see both in the airport utility
    Lastly, as long as you can see both airports in the utility, plug the express and move it to the desired location
    *if this does not work however you can attempt to configure the base stations manually which isnt hard but id try the assisted mode first

  • IPhoto can't see my photos

    I had a hard drive directory problem after filling my HD to 99.9% full. iPhoto now can't see my photo's. The iPhoto library is there, complete with originals, alterations, etc, but when iPhoto opens, it says that there are 0 pictures. I used option+iphoto and selected the folder again, as well as moving the folder and selecting it from another location, and iPhoto opens it and says 0 pictures.
    I tried rebuilding the database, which it does very quickly, reopens and says 0 pictures.
    But I know the pictures are there because they are in the originals folder (as verified with preview) and they are in the date archived folders as well.
    What should I do?

    Cane,
    so far you have done all the correct steps. iPhoto unfortunately cannot read the data files in your library folder(they are probably corrupt from whatever happened to your HD) and so it tells you there are 0 files.
    The next step is to create a new library:
    How many images do you have in your library?
    Do you mind losing albums, keywords, comments?
    If not...
    close iPhoto
    -drag the iPhoto Library folder to the desktop
    -launch iPhoto and create a new library
    -double click the iPhoto Library folder on the desktop to open it
    -the two main folders you will need to import are the Original folder and the Modified folder (only if you want to import the edited images).
    -the Originals folder has all your originals photos unedited. the Modified folder has all images that you have edited, rotated, cropped, etc.
    -Drag these two folders to the desktop
    -If you want to save the edited image, find it in the roll in the Modified folder and drag it into the roll of the same name in the Originals folder. It will replace the originals and now will be the original.
    -If you don't care to save any edited images, then don't import the Modified folder into iPhoto or don't bother replacing the edited image with the original image like I just described.
    -If you import the Originals folder into iPhoto you will have all your originals in their named rolls.
    -If you import the Originals and Modified folders into iPhoto, you will have all of the being in the originals folder in the finder. The roll with the same name as the other will have a _1 appended to it's name (in the finder)
    -the roll from the originals will be next to the same roll from the Modified folder within iPhoto. You can then delete any of the images from there if you want.
    I know this might sound confusing but it really isn't.
    Get back if any of this sounds like something you might want to do.
